KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Austin Gomber tossed six innings of four-hit ball in a crucial spot start, leading the St. Louis Cardinals to a 5-0 victory over Brady Singer and the Kansas City Royals. The Cardinals still trail the Chicago Cubs by 3 1/2 games in the NL Central, but they improved to 27-25 and edged ahead of Milwaukee and Cincinnati for the No. 2 spot in the division. Dylan Carlson paced the St. Louis offense by driving in two runs while finishing a homer shy of the cycle. Singer walked five in three-plus innings while taking the loss for Kansas City.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Supporters lobbying to reinstate four recently-eliminated University of Iowa sports programs say they have obtained $1.65 million and counting in pledges if the school decides to keep them going. Save Iowa Sports, a group that includes hundreds of athletes, alumni and donors, said in a letter to Iowa President Bruce Harreld that the pledges have come together in a few days and are “just the beginning” of its fundraising campaign. The university last month moved to abruptly eliminate men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s tennis and men’s gymnastics. Athletic director Gary Barta said the cuts were “100% driven by” the coronavirus pandemic, which caused the postponement of football for safety reasons and tens of millions in lost revenue.
Atlantic Activities Director Andy Mitchell announced on Tuesday a couple of changes to schedules due to the Trojan Bowl renovations not being complete. The 7th grade game on September 24th has been moved to Creston and will begin at 5:45 p.m. The 9th Grade game scheduled for September 24th has been cancelled. He said they are still hopeful that the JV Football game scheduled for Monday, September 28th at the Trojan Bowl can be played there.
